Backstreet Boys is the second self-titled album by the vocal-pop group Backstreet Boys. The first was their 1996 Backstreet Boys, which was not released in the United States. This second self-titled album was released in 1997 and was their debut album in the country. It became one of the most successful debut albums of all time. The album peaked at #4 on the Billboard charts and has been certified 14x Platinum (Diamond) by RIAA for sales to retailers.

This album is a collection of tracks from Backstreet Boys' first and second international albums, 1995 Backstreet Boys and 1997 Backstreet's Back respectively. The album was released in 1997 to coincide with Backstreet's Back. Also both albums share basically the same cover, only with slight differences.

5 stars They've Got it Goin' On.....Now and Forever!

1 stars Oh, Freedom!
Freedom of speech is a great thing I guess, because it allows someone to compare the Beach Boys to [gulp!] the Backstreet Boys. Brian Wilson was a musical genious - a composer, arranger, performer, and producer. The Backstreet Boys are studio singers, any one of whom is replaceable any time. Staying power? Don't bet on it. These are the future stars of VH-1's "Where ARE They Now? As for the album - there are a couple of good songs, but overall it's just kind of weak. 1-star.
